Abstract:

Clinical changes of lacrimal gland (LG) in sarcoidosis are studied. 33 patients (66 orbits) with verified systemic sarcoidosis were examined using digital ultrasound. Different varieties of LG structural changes in sarcoidosis are studied. Different types of LG structural changes were determined in patients with sarcoidosis defined as pseudoedematous and combined forms. Analysis of the results let us reveal characteristic local acoustic changes. Obtained results may be useful for diagnosis of LG changes in patients with sarcoidosis.
